iAfter : giving effect

in 1945, according to
Earling, Vice-President in charge
1945 through Nov. 30, 1945, the
company carried a total of 179,232 revenue passengers, as compared
with 325,600 flown from Jan. 1, 1946 up to the present date.
In discussing mileage and passenger totals, Mr. Earling pointed out
that for the month of Nov. 1946 "there was an increase of 34%
in
the number of revenue passengers as compared with the same 30-day
period in 1945. In November of this year, we flew 28,000 passengers,
an
increase of more than 7,000 over the 20,977 figure for November
of last year." He added that
figures for the month of Nov.\ 1946
alone
indicate
an
ever
increasing demand for air transportation
throughout the
11 Mississippi Valley states now being served by
C. & S. During that month, passenger miles totaled nearly 11,000,000,
as
compared with the 8,800,000 figure for the month of Nov. 1945, a
net gain of close to 2,000,000 revenue passenger miles.—V. 164, p. 2688.

1947 will issue and sell
additional
shares of its common
stock, in an amount and on terms
to be deter¬
mined later, to provide funds
for use in connection
with the expansion
program, including the retirement of the
remaining approximately
$30,000,000 of said bank

necessarily
tentative and subject to
conditions affecting the
